Bherwerre Beach

Bherwerre Beach is a long, south-facing ocean beach also approached from Cave Beach car park.

Take the main trail from the car park to the camping area. On the western side of the camp area there is a trail that leads around Ryans Swamp to Bherwerre Beach. Ryans Swamp attracts many waterbirds such as swamp hens, egrets and ducks and is also home to numerous frogs and snakes and turtles

To complete a circuit, take the fire trail back to Cave Beach Road from Bherwerre Beach. The fire trail leads you across sand dunes which were revegetated with bitou bush in the late 1960s. Since then this plant has become a major weed and is a threat to all of the NSW coast. In the deeper soils tall blackbutt forest replaces the dune vegetation.
